About the game
If you thought you'd seen it all in treasure hunts, get ready for the chaos! The Order of the Crimson Hand has decided that stealing relics isn't enough; they want to rule the world through dark rituals and creatures from another plane. In Rise of the Crimson Hand, the stakes are raised significantly. This expansion for the Fortune and Glory base game brings a wealth of content that will keep any adventurer on their toes. Prepare to face new villains, each featuring a highly detailed miniature that adds a special touch to your table.

What truly shifts the gameplay here is the introduction of new dangers and deadly test mechanics, which can change the course of an expedition in a heartbeat. Additionally, cities now feature epic events that can be triggered, making every playthrough feel unique. And don't think the villains will just stand there: new Crimson Hand Acolytes will race you to secure artifacts! It is a pure adventure experience, packed with more cards, new decks, and a vile organization that won't give you a moment's rest. If you already enjoy the Fortune and Glory system, this expansion is exactly the fuel your next epic adventures need.
